THE PLUCKY SHERIFF
OF HAMILTON COUNTY, TENN,
HAS THRILLIMG
Experience In Arresting Prisoner
In North CarOIina-several At
tempts 60 Detaiu Him Fail.
lsrRcrIL TO TIE ArpxAL.I


CHATTANOOGA, TENN, March T.
Sheriff Conner, OF Hamilton county,
returned tonight from North Carolina,
where he had q thriliLg experience
in getting prisoner named Gcodlako,
wanted hire on a charge Of felonious
assault. All of the necessary papers
had been obtained and the Governor
of North Carolina had ordered the
prisoner turned over to the Tennessee
Sheriff. When Conner arrived at Ashe-
vile lie went with the Sheriff 10 the
jail to get his man and they
were confronted by Goodlake,
who presented g revolver at the
officers, who retired, and after getting
a body of determined men returned o
the Jail, overpoWered Goodlaks and
handcuffed him and put him in
chains. In the meantime lot Of
Goodlake's friends among the roughs
of the city organized and made an at
tempt to rescue the prisoner, but were
met by the entire coneGabulary OF
Asheville, aided by a number
Of citizsns, and for a while a
pitched battle seemed imminent.
Before the Tennessee Sheriff could
reach a train he was arrested on
warrant by Gocdlake's friends, charg-
ing him with perjury. He was tried
Sunday, his prisoner in the meantime
being heavily guarded at the jail. No
proof being adduced, Conner was re-
Leased. Failing in this Goodlake's
friends went to Marshall, where court
was in session, secured a habeas corpus
writ, intending to meet Conner AID his
friends 90 they passed Marshall on their
way to Tennessee. Hearing OF this
design the plucky Sheriff left thu pris-
oner in charge OF deputy went for
ward to the engine and changing
clio hes with the fireman fred the en-
gine for ten miles. In the meantime
{ God ,ke's friends, with a Sheriff, en-
tered the cars at station and
began the search for Conner,
to whom the writ was directed. They
searched the train, and finally, after
the train had reached within six
miles of the Tennessee line,
when they discovered him, bat
they failed to serve the writ on
him, Conner running out along the
foot boards OF the engine, and riding
on the COW catcher until the train
reached the Tennessee line. He then
babe defiance to the North Carolina
crowd, who left, swearing they
would have him in the penitentiary.
The Sheriff arrived safely with his
prisoner. He states that he had no
positive knowledge of Whist the off.
GERS wanted with him, but believed
they were only trying to delay him,
and thus put him to further cost and
trouble. The affair crested intense
excitement in North Carolina, and
mob violence was threatened several
times.

II is related that one young girl wept
bitterly on the night Of her debut be-
cause the very low bodice her mother
compelled her TO wear offended her
sense OF modesty. The countenances
OF more than one young girl have been
suffused with bushes for the same
reason. Few young girls wear low
waists by preference; a silly mother
and vulgar dressmaker are the real
culprits. No jewel so becomes a girl
